Manage my child's profile info does NOT show my kid

Hello Jabka71,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

Your child's account could be in a different region than yours. To comply with regional regulations around data protection, the child and the adult providing consent need to be in the same regulatory region. It might also be due
to the account is not configured in the right way. Kindly follow the steps mentioned below to reconfigure the feature.

Step 1: Update your region.

• Go to Your info on account.microsoft.com and sign in.
  
• Select Edit country/region.
  
• Update your country or region to match your child's, then make sure the other settings are up to date. Select Save to finish up.
  

Step 2: Remove a child and add a child to your family.

• To remove a child from the list, I would suggest you to follow the steps mentioned in the article:
  
  https://support.microsoft.com/en-ph/help/4027707/microsoft-account-remove-members-from-family
  
  
• To add a child, sign in to
  https://account.microsoft.com/profile/ >> Go to
  Select a child to view or edit their settings and then select
  Add.
  
• Enter your child's email address and select
  Send invite. You need to accept the email invitation from a device with the Child account currently logged in.
  

For additional information, you can go through the article which talks about
Parental consent and Microsoft child accounts and
Set up and manage your family.

Hope it helps.

Child Account Get Greyed Out

Thanks for the suggestion, but I did the following instead.

I have another laptop, 2 weeks old, with Windows 10 Home on it.

On that one, I tried the same steps with the child account, and got the exact same results.
